You Took Me In As One

Chapter 31

Today I'm going back to school. I've missed a lot of days, but I've got all my work done. Riker insisted to drive me to school. So him and I were eating oatmeal just before I had to leave.

" Okay, you ready?" He asked as he placed his bowl in the sink. I took the last bite and nodded. I grabbed my bag and put on my shoes. " Bye stormie, bye mark." I said as I approached the door.

" Bye sweetie!" They said in unison. We got into Riker's jeep and left for school. " So are you excited to go back to school?" He asked trying to make conversation. " Not really." I shrugged.

" Oh." That's all he said. I stared out the window. " You know, I was wondering," I looked over at him. " You've been with us for a long time now, and you still call our parents by their names, why?"

I've never really thought about it, but now that I did, I realized why.
I sighed. " Cause I find it awkward." I lied. I didn't really want to tell the truth. " Are you sure? Even Ellington calls them mom and dad sometimes." He laughed.

" Yeah, I'm sure." I frowned. He looked over at me. " Okay, something's wrong. What is it?"

I looked up as I tired to not get myself upset. " I just feel like, that if I start calling them mom and dad.," I stopped and took a shaky breath. " It'll be like I'm replacing them." I choked out. He pulled into the parking space and looked at me. I looked up at the roof and took deep breaths. " Oh, I'm sorry." He frowned. I grabbed my bag. " It's fine. Good bye Riker. Thanks for driving me."

I leaned over and hugged him. " Bye, and no problem." I pulled back and smiled. I got out and walked to the front doors.

I met up with my only friend Jacob. We have mostly everything in common, hence why were friends.

We both like music, writing, and acting. " Glad to see that you're back." He said as we walked to class. " Yeah," we walked past the popular group. I groaned as Jena called my name.

" What do you want?" I faced her. " Happy to see that you're back." She smirked.
" Oh it's great to be back." I growled and walked away. I took my seat and josh was already sitting down.

" Ahhhhh, look who's back." He whispered. I sighed and didn't reply. " Ya know, I kinda missed you." He said getting closer. He was getting extremely close and I was feeling uncomfortable.

" Besides Jacob, there's no one else to pick on." Then he backed away. Man is it great to be back. I rolled my eyes just as the teacher walked in. After seven long hours of pure horror, school was over.

I walked out of school and was pulled away. "Let me go! I'm going to miss my bus!" I yelled trying to get out of their grasp.

" Not today." He whispered. I felt something go into my arm Then everything went black.

I woke up and my head was pounding. Everything around me was dark. I felt something cold around my wrist. I went to move, but I couldn't. I was chained. What is happening?

I started to realize what is going on so I started screaming. " HELP! HELP ME! LET ME OUT!" But it was no use.

I looked over to my side and there was beds, after beds, after beds. But the one beside me had someone in it. " Shhhh! You'll make him come down here!" She yelled. Wait, why does she sound so familiar?

She turned around and I couldn't believe my eyes.

" BRITTANY!?" She stood up and walked over to me. Wait, why is she not chained? And why is she here?! Why am I here?!

" Shhhh. Please." I looked over and another women came over. " What is going on? And can I be unchained?" I whispered.

She unchained my arms and I reached up and hugged her. " What's going on? Why are we here?" Brittany sighed.

" We were taken, I've been here for almost six mouths now." I went to grab my phone from my pockets, but I wasn't wearing anything.

Tears formed in my eyes. " Don't worry, he didn't do anything, I didn't let him." The women said.

" So tell me what exactly is happening." I crocked.

" Well, I've been here for years now, and there has been others, Usually he sticks with older women, but he wanted two young girls, so he found Brittany and now you," the women started.

" We still don't know why he has us or what he's going to do with us, but he has beaten us," Brittany finished.

" How long have I been hear?" I cried. " About a day." A voice said coming out of the shadows. Brittany and the women ran back to their beds. As the guy came out of the shadows, I quickly recognized him.

" What the hell?!" I screamed. I started to cry. " Why?! Why did you do this!?" I yelled at Alex.

" Because he had too." Another voice said. He placed his hand on Alex's shoulder and came into view. It took me a second, but I knew who it was.

" Brad?" He nodded. He came closer to me. " Let me go!" I yelled. He smirked. " Not till I get what I want." He dragged a knife along my neck. He came closer to my ear. " And what I want, is you." He whispered. I gulped. Why is this happening?

Rikers Point Of Veiw;

I waited at the bus stop for Jordan. The bus drops her off a few blocks away, so I wanted to go get her since I was e only one home. I watched as each student pilled off the bus, which none was Jordan. I watched as the bus pulled away and she wasn't there.

Maybe she walked? I waited for a few minutes then drove back to the house. She still wasn't there.

Now I'm worried. I called Ross. " Hey bro, what's up?" He asked. " Jordan didn't get off the bus, and she's not at home," I informed him.

He sighed. " Well then go look for her." He replied back. " Dude, what is your problem? You use to love this little girl! You adored her! And now you don't even care that she might be missing?!" I yelled.

He didn't day anything. " Ever since Laura, you've been different, and I don't like it. When my little brother comes back, tell him that I need him." And with that, I hung up.

I decided to call Rydel, she agreed to help look, so now we were driving around trying to find her.

We were in a parking lot, trying to figure out where she could've gone when a familiar car pulls beside us.

He rolled down his window. " Any luck?" Ross asked. I shook my head. " Where could she have gone?" He sighed.

Then a boy walked by and he look familiar. I got out and ran over to him. " You're Alex, right?" I asked the boy.

He nodded his head. " You're friends with Jordan?" When I mentioned his name he tensed up, but nodded.

" We can't seem to find her, do you know where she might be?" I asked hopefully. He shook his head. " No sorry, but I got to go." Then he took off.

Well that was weird. I sighed and walked back to my car. " Were going to have to tell mom and dad, and maybe the police if we can't find her." Rydel said. I nodded my head and drove home.
